Officers seized firearms, thousands of dollars in cash, luxury cars, bulletproof vests, various drugs and chemicals used in the production of methamphetamine and heroin.
 
Mounties say material believed to be used for packaging products was also found to be part of an illegal drug operation that was allegedly run out of two locations.
